Yeah, some songs. It's frustrating though, because everyone says "how can you tap like that?" as I can do it pretty well. But then when I try to play a song with a simple, slow descending tapping lick my playing goes to hell. Oh well, I don't really care much for tapping anyway.

[QUOTE=toaster135]It's far easier to tap high, low, middle. Try going high, low, middle, low, high etc. It's a nice change from the standard EVH style, and it's not hard.[/QUOTE]
My friend feels the opposite. He can tap in order high-middle-low perfectly but can't do it any other way. I figured I was the wierd one.

[QUOTE=ShadowsFallen]I can't tap chronologically. By that I mean I can't go in order (high note, middle note, low note). Whenever I tap, I always end up using some kind of odd order like high-low-middle. I can tap fine that way, by when I try to do it the standard way I get very slow and sloppy.[/QUOTE]

Same here...when ever I attempt to tap something thats decently fast, thetres pretty much no order or organization to what Im doing..Its not something I practice though.

I've seen randy rhodes do some pretty good tapping licks. God I wish he was still alive. :(

A good example was the solo to Flying High Again.

I use my index to tap as well. Find it more comfortable.

EDIT: F[size=2]u[/size]ck it's so cold I find difficulty in writing.

Well try out that 8 finger tap thing I posted above. It'll get you to use all 4 of your right hand fingers.

Yes i know its more IE but I wanted to point it out.

Ah, Iced Earth. Sounds reasonable.

I saw that. It's very stupid. Pretty soon you won't be able to post anything relating directly to copywrited music online.

Maybe the word "music" will be outlawed on the internet soon.

[QUOTE=King_Of_Terrors]I don't even bother to try tapping. I suck at it.

Just start with simple taps. Do it slowly until you become accurate and build up enough strength in your fingers to move onto faster and harder material.

When I did a gig for my college on last sunday, it was 24 degrees fahrenheit and I didn't have anything on other than pants and a shirt (socks and shoes as well). My joints in my fingers were almost completely stiff and I f*cked up every single one of my solos because of it.

A word of advice, never try any form of legato in the cold.:thumb:



Well I'm gonna be gone for the next couple of weeks. Time to go write some awesome metal. Update me with the latest when I get back.:wave:

Well, its the community thread, as if its never, EVER spammed. But damn dude, practice different tapping riffs and slow at first then faster. Anyone hate that feeling when someone your friends with hangs out with someone you dont like after he said he'd hang out with you and a (different) friend.

Edit:Beaten to tapping advice.

Cya.

I finished writing this song using powertab..dunno if it makes sense as im pretty much 0 in theory..sounds okay though. No solo though...I cant make up solos for sh*t.

All in all im pretty proud of myself :p

I've tried it, just coming in from the cold and picking up the guitar straight away, it's actually rather painful.

Anyway cya :wave:

They say that Tabs are breaking copyright laws. Aren't tabs created by fans. They are never 100% right and no one is profiting from making tabs. The Music Industry is runned by some serious pricks.

My solos with sweeping=Sh!t. My solos with lots of melodicism(heh) I like. They are usually slower and are in my prog songs.

[QUOTE=Flame in the ashes]How cold? Gah I hate it when friends bug out on you..[/QUOTE]

around... 60 °F? I don't know. Somewhere around 13-16°C. But I just woke up and I was warm in my bed so yeah.

[QUOTE=Stormrider331]Sorry but, How do I send a power tab ?[/QUOTE]
Upload it to YSI?

[QUOTE=Flame In The Ashes]Well, its the community thread, as if its never, EVER spammed[/QUOTE]

No sh[SIZE="2"]it[/SIZE], but that is no excuse to think before you hit the da[SIZE="2"] submit button now is it?[/SIZE]

This goes for every one imo. And if every one wants to spam, this community thread should be like the old guitar forum community threads. As they would get deleted after a certain number of posts, so people could spam it up all they want but still would not increase their post count in a mindless fashion.

But anywho...

As the illegal tab topic, as I could understand about the tabs blatantly copied from the tab books and such, but I don't see how this really makes any sense. Most of the tabs are made by people who have transcirbed them by ear, so how are they exact copies?

Bah, these kind of things piss me off to no end as they are not based off any thing logical.

And how does posting lyrics on the internet make it so artists can't make money?

By the way, I don't think you really got the meaning of what Freezing Moon was saying in your melodic death mailing list thread about the scamming of people.

He pretty much meant that you are sending out all these albums, but you don't even have them in the first place. So in order to get these albums with out doing any research or searching, you have people bring it to you on a silver platter.

Lazy music pirating at it's best...
